I’ve never actually paid for one of these side-scrolling shoot ‘em ups, except for all the countless coins I happily pumped into arcade machines as a child.

No, I’m not telling you which one until you click the link I’m still bumbling, tumbling and blundering through the cavernous labyrinths of first-person spelunking simLorn’s Lure, in which you are an android exploring a series of enormous machines and sunken artificial habitats. I hope one day to level up from “bumbling, tumbling and blundering” to “running and jumping”. Perhaps I’ll even get as far as “speedrunning”.
